The trouble with the straight and the narrow is it's so thin, I keep sliding off to the side

Professor!  Thinking of you and wishing you a quick recovery!
Can you keep it simple? Can you let the snare crack? Can you let it move without holding back?

ICU nurse has a spotify or pandora account, so John is listening to Z now. Maybe he looks so bad because of Jacket withdrawal??


Hope to hear some more news soon!

UPDATE:

John's wife Michele said that John is still in the ICU but doing better.

The surgery did not go as smoothly or quickly as hoped and it sounds like there were some complications.  John's condition has stabilized in the past day but he is still hooked up to a heart/lung machine.

Sounds like the current plan is to get him off of that thing at some point this coming Tuesday.

We all know Yac has a big heart made of gold so hopefully he will be getting stronger by the day.

Continue to post your well wishes here as I'm confident that one Yac will be getting back to the forum as soon as he possibly can.  We all know he is the one guy who never stays away for long.

Thanks for the update Jeff. Keep em coming when you can.

If you're reading this John, know we're all sending our best your way. I have all the faith in the world you'll be back on here soon, and better than ever. Can't wait to see you, and rock a show or two with ya.  :beer:  Get healed up, and we'll see you down the road somewhere, rocking out better than ever!  :thumbsup:

Thanks for the update. I've been a little concerned with the lack of info, definitely been on my mind over the last few days. Scary stuff. Definitely a heart of gold though. Be well Yac!

Sassbox

Yes, thanks again for the update, headhunter.

Have been thinking of the Yacs. Godspeed!
God sure baked a lot of fruitcake, baby.

Hey gang-  some good and up-to-date news from John's wife Michele.


Please let everyone know for us that we got some super good news this morning.  John is off all the machines and breathing on his own, and his heart is beating on its own, too.  He is still retaining too much fluid for them to be able to close him up, but hopefully that will happen in the next few days.

I'm very relieved that recent news is quite positive.  Hang in there YYac.  You'll be better in no time.
